      The Juice Lady's Remedies for Diabetes - Cherie Calbom

      INFORMATION

      INTRODUCTION

      IBECAME KNOWN AS the Juice Lady on TV and in print because of a serendipitous request from the owners of the Juiceman company. I was living in Seattle, Washington, completing graduate school at Bastyr University (a school of natural medicine), when another graduate student and I were asked to write a booklet containing juice recipes and nutrition information to accompany the Juiceman Juicer. One thing led to another, and before long I was traveling around the country almost weekly as the Juice Lady, teaching people how to create nutritious juices that are guaranteed to renew health and vitality.

      Even before I decided to pursue my master’s degree in nutrition science, I had a passionate personal interest in the benefits of high-quality nutrition because it was juicing, detoxing, and eating whole organic foods that had brought me back to full health not only once, but twice. (Read my story in chapter 1.) Now I want nothing more than to bring other people along with me on the journey to full life.

      In this book I want to introduce you to the special benefits of juicing to help you prevent diabetes or to improve your health if you have already been diagnosed with diabetes.

      Many people need this information today. Diabetes affects more than 29.1 million people in the United States, more than 9.3 percent of the population (people of all ages). Of that number, 21 million people have been diagnosed with the disease, and 8.1 million people (or 27.8 percent of people with diabetes) have not yet been diagnosed.¹

      Diabetes is actually a group of diseases (including both type 1 and type 2, as well as others) marked by high levels of blood glucose caused from problems in how insulin is produced, how insulin works, or both. Diabetics may develop serious complications, including heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, limb loss, blindness, and premature death.²

      Thanks to better treatments, diabetics are living longer and have a better quality of life than ever before. Healthy food choices are an especially important part of any successful treatment program. In this book we will explore how food choices—especially juiceable foods—can help slow down the progress and calm the symptoms of the disease.

      Diabetes is a serious disease, but it does not need to be an irreversible life sentence. You can look forward to a long and happy life after a diagnosis of diabetes—if you make specific changes to your lifestyle. I have worked with many people who have been able to manage their diabetes with diet alone. After following my recommendations for thirty days, many people have reported that their blood sugar returned to normal, and a significant percentage no longer needed medication as long as they followed the diet.

      Are you ready for something better? It’s time for you to learn to make highly nutritious juices in your own kitchen. Juices and smoothies made from fresh vegetables, low-sugar fruits, and other foods can help you regain your health and vitality—and keep you healthy for the rest of your life. Let fresh and nutritious juices, smoothies, and living foods become your insurance against the multifaceted threats of diabetes to the healthy functioning of your body.

      Fresh is best.

      Why go to the trouble of making your own juice? Why not just buy it? After all, stores are now stocked with a growing array of juices and other beverages made from organic, natural ingredients.

      The primary reason is that you simply cannot get complete nutritional benefits from juice that is not freshly made, regardless of how carefully it was bottled and stored. Too many of the vitamins and other nutrients are lost or altered in juice that is not fresh, even when it has been produced from the finest ingredients. Many prepackaged juices have been pasteurized, meaning that high heat has been applied to the processing, which kills vitamins, enzymes, and biophotons.

      Another obvious reason is that your choices will be limited to whatever sells best. Only juice recipes that are commercially viable will be manufactured and sold at your local store. If you learn to make your own juices, smoothies, and other beverages, you will be able to pick and choose based not only on your personal health needs but also on your taste preferences. You may never buy juice again once your taste buds sample their first sip of one of the juices in this book. Take a quick look at the last chapter, where you will find recipes using ingredients more varied and numerous than you will ever be able to try with store-bought juice. After a while you will be creating your own special combinations of yummy, fresh ingredients.

      Your digestive system will be able to absorb the nutrition quickly—without raising your blood sugar too much—so that it can enter your bloodstream and begin to achieve its complex healing work. The vitamins, minerals, enzymes, phytochemicals, biophotons, and more—all extracted from nature’s own containers—will make you feel healthier almost instantly.

      To focus on the nutritional needs of people with diabetes (or prediabetes), I have specially selected from my always-growing collection of recipes. There is a reason for every one of my choices and combinations, and I have tried to balance tastes and other personal preferences with the changing health needs of people like you who don’t have all day to work in the garden or stand at the kitchen counter but who want to zero in on top-notch nutrition that is both healthful and healing.

      Juice—both a noun and a verb

      Anybody can learn to juice. To get started, all you need is a good juicer. (On my website, www.juiceladycherie.com, you will find recommendations for juicers.) Skim the recipes in this book until one catches your eye. Stock your refrigerator and pantry shelves and plug in your juicer. Within minutes you will take your first sip. Later in the day find another recipe and give it a try. After a couple of weeks of your new routine I know you will be feeling better. Your sluggishness will disappear, and you will be able to make other important lifestyle changes. Before long you may be able to say no to extreme medical interventions, and your troubling (even debilitating) symptoms of diabetes will be a thing of the past.

      Here’s to your health—as I raise another tall glass of freshest juice! I am a living testimony to its benefits.

      Chapter 1

      MY STORY

      MY LIFE CHANGED years ago when I discovered the healing power of freshly made juice as well as raw, whole foods. I’d like to share my story with you.

      I had been sick for a couple years and just kept getting worse. I was sitting by the window one day in my father’s home staring at the snow-topped mountains in the distance. It was early June, and the weather was beautiful. I wished I had the strength to just walk around the block. But I was too sick and tired—I could barely walk around the house.

      Will I ever be well again? I wondered. I’d had to quit my job when I turned thirty because I had chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia. They made me so sick I couldn’t work. I felt as though I had a never-ending flu. Constantly feverish with swollen glands and perennially lethargic, I was also in constant pain. My body ached as though I’d been bounced around in a washing machine.

      I had moved back to my father’s home in Colorado to try to recover. But not one doctor had a recommendation for what I should do to facilitate healing. So I went to some health food stores and browsed around, talked with employees, and read a few books. I decided that everything I’d been doing—eating fast food, having granola for dinner, and not eating vegetables—was tearing down my health rather than healing my body. I read about juicing and whole foods, and it made sense to me. So I bought a juicer and designed a program I could follow.

      I juiced and ate a nearly perfect diet of live and whole foods for three months. There were ups and downs throughout. I had days on which I felt encouraged that I was making some progress but other days on which I felt worse. The latter were discouraging and made me wonder if health was the elusive dream. No one told me about detox reactions, which was what I was experiencing. I was obviously very toxic, and my body was cleansing away all that stuff that had made me sick. This caused the not-so-good days in the midst of the promising ones.

      But one morning I woke up early—early for me, which was around 8:00 a.m.—without an alarm sounding off. I felt as if someone had given me a new body in the night. I had so much energy I actually wanted to go jogging! What had happened? This new sensation of health seemed to have appeared with the morning sun. But actually my body had been healing all along; the healing simply had not manifested until that day.

      What a wonderful sense of being alive! I looked and felt completely renewed. With my juicer in tow and a new lifestyle fully embraced, I returned to Southern California a couple weeks later to finish writing my first book. For nearly a year I enjoyed great health and more energy and stamina than I’d ever remembered.

      But just ahead was a shattering event.

      Death too near

      July fourth was a beautiful day like so many others in Southern California. I celebrated the holiday with friends that evening at a backyard barbecue. When the evening got cool, we put on jackets and watched fireworks light up the night sky. I had been house-sitting for some vacationing friends who lived in a lovely neighborhood nearby, and I returned just before midnight. Soon I was snug in bed.

      I woke up shivering some time later. Why is it so cold? I wondered, as I rolled over to see the clock; it was 3:00 a.m. That’s when I noticed that the door to the backyard was open. Wonder how that happened? I thought, as I began to get up to close and lock it. That’s when I noticed a man crouched in the shadows of the corner of the room—a
